I gotta admit - I am stumped today - I checked all the hardware on my WEST FLAG and my 80-10 end fed which does feed me some good OMNI directional signals -- I think if tonight shapes up as a GOOD TA Night, I am going to BUNDLE up and grab a TSA Friendly RSFSL and sit in the back yard with one

Thanks for the very detailed TP-DXing report, Colin (which I'm sure took a serious amount of time and effort). On hot-propagation days like yesterday and today, the essential question is how much time do you devote to a detailed TP-DXing report (that does justice to the exceptional conditions)
